this is an example of the Amerikkkan culture TRULY reflecting a fascist state. Looked like a white professor who was afraid of appropriate anger and disagreement with an African-American student. This is truly a disgusting representation of fascist police and RW instructor power.

Don't know or care whether the student deserves the grade or not. This 'arrest' scenario here explains why an AA is ALWAYS at risk in Amerikkka.

Situations like this always carry me back to this era that is still reflected in Amerikkkan culture today::

she is shown in the video and doesn't look remotely white, and this university is a HBCU which usually have largely AA staffs.

but I watched the video myself and have my own thoughts and mental picture of what I saw. There are white prof.s at Historically black universities.
